Welcome

Welcome to First United Methodist Church of Wellington. We are a faith home of tradition,
founded in 1826, yet from that tradition, we are reaching out to our neighbors in new and
exciting ways. Our goal is to glorify God by bringing persons to Jesus. The best way we achieve
that vision is to bring Jesus to persons, meeting them where they are. The gospels record only one
event in which Jesus preached in the synagogue. All other events happened out and about, in
the lives of people, in homes, in the square, along the road, at the seaside, on a mountain side.
Jesus met people where they were. That is the model we follow at First UMC Wellington. We
are doing our best to get out of the castle, beyond the moat, and out into our neighborhoods.
Please join us for prayer walks, drive thru prayer, our new Bible and Brew get together, and our
new worship service: Messy Church, a hands-on message of Jesus, which one of our friends
dubbed, ‘Family Church Fun.’ Whether you long for the tried and true tradition of putting on
your Sunday best and hearing an angelic choir from the choir loft, or are looking for some new-
fangled way to experience the gospel in your sandals, we invite you to find it at First UMC of
Wellington. Come, share the Lord with us, and help us bring Jesus to our neighbors.
